[Gmod-ajax] 2022 AgBioData Community Workshop

[Annarita M. <ama...@ar...>]

Dear JBrowse community members,

I am Annarita Marrano, the program coordinator of AgBioData
<https://www.agbiodata.org/>.

AgBioData is a consortium of agricultural biological databases and
associated resources working together to ensure standards and best
practices for the acquisition, display, and retrieval of genomic, genetic,
and breeding data.

We’d like to invite you to join the “2022 AgBioData Community Workshop:
Facilitating crosstalk and network building across Working Groups” on March
15–17 (7-9 AM PT).

Anyone who uses, generates or manages agricultural biological data is
encouraged to attend. Hearing about the issues that you encounter when
searching for, accessing, and reusing data in your research is very
important for developing standards and best practices for FAIR data.
Even if you can’t make it all three days, we hope that you can participate.

As part of our NSF RCN grant <https://www.agbiodata.org/node/472>, we
currently have nine working groups (WGs) focusing on different aspects of
data sharing and management in agriculture (more information about the WGs
here <https://www.agbiodata.org/all-working-groups>). The goals of this
community workshop are:


   -

   providing a forum for the individual WGs to communicate what they are
   working on;

   -

   gathering detailed, impactful community feedback on specific questions
   that the WGs have about data curation, archiving, and management in
   agriculture.



Each day will start with short presentations from selected working groups,
followed by breakout sessions, where WG and non-WG members can meet and
discuss relevant topics, and a brief reporting period at the end.
